About this course
Product design features the identification of a market opportunity from a clearly defined problem, developing a solution for that problem, and validating the solution with end-users and stakeholders. It involves activities from conceptual design to product development, which constitute important parts of industrial design. This course features the design of a simple machine, and a smart IoT device enclosure. It highlights the role of the mechanical designer and other affiliated engineering roles in ensuring that a product functions according to specification, meets the client's requirement, then meets the minimum global standards. We would explore one of the popular additive manufacturing technologies, called FDM/FFF, as it would apply to the product design workflow. You will gain professional CAD skills, learn design collaboration via a cloud-based solution, learn how to collaborate with other stakeholders on a project, specifically the electronics/PCB design team, and finally visualize and optimize your designs for rapid prototyping (3D printing). Through this course, you will learn the foundations of product innovation, testing and digital manufacturing while developing strong technical skills. Certificate of Completion will be issued only after a successful completion of the training.
